SW:KOTOR2 PATCH 1.0C (Build 2)(Unofficial: Bug Fixes+High-Res Textures) This is the upgraded version of the patch. It features High-Res textures in the tomb of Freedon Nadd on the planet Dxun, and the High-Res version of Telos Citadel Station. Also few more textures on other planets that I've missed the first time have been upped. Hi people. For quite a long time I (Cryptobionika, also known as “Xenonâ€) have been working on a patch to Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 – The Sith Lords game. I have upped texture resolutions of nearly the entire game, but (!) all the textures used are pure originals. This is NOT a retexture. This is NOT a mod (although several bug-fixing mods were used to complete the patch). This is a pure patch that fixes almost every known bug in the game, almost every low-resolution texture and restores some content. This patch will make the game a final version, as Obsidian intended to release it. Many dozens of textures have be upped in resolution, dozens of missing shader effects (metal reflections, etc.) have been restored. All the broken quests have been fixed. Dialogs, scrips sequences – everything. This patch will make your game beautiful (at least as much, as first KOTOR) and bugless. I’ve been working many months on it, and believe me – you won’t regret it. A team of beta testers have fully checked the patch – there are no conflicts at all. Only conflicts may come out if you use it with some mods or with non-english version. The patch was developed for English version of a game only. Now, we all know about Team Gizka’s Restoration project, don’t we? A very good project indeed. But there is one little thing about it. It DOES NOT fix ANY textures AT ALL. Only content. And the game itself will look as disgusting, as it did. Also don’t be afraid of viruses (unless uploaded by someone else) because I have no intention of virusing anyone – I was making this patch for myself, so it isn’t a fake of any kind. It does not require to be installed on a version 1.0b – it can be installed on any version.

That includes droids, rocks, walls, ships, everything. And I would like to ask you: spread this patch anywhere you can, seed it. KOTOR 2 is a great, but very crippled game and thousands of people can’t enjoy the game coz of bugs and a terrible look. This is and likely will be the only real unofficial patch for this game. Once Gizkas come out with their mod, I will likely work on compatibility. And I will possibly keep on working on the patch. If there will be new releases, they will be sorted by dates, not the builds. The only real thing I haven’t yet fully fixed (textures) is the Tomb of Freedon Nadd, but it doesn’t look all that bad anyway.

I'm the patch maker, so I'm answering:
No, you don't need a crack. Because of the some bugs in EXE (with swoop racing) I *HAD* to use the no-cd crack. This was the only way to fix the bug.
So no - no cracks or no-cds are required. You install it, and it works.
Your specific problem is either Vista (likely), or video drivers.
Try to download a Vista Fix here:
www.knightsoftheoldrepublic.filefront.com
Also note that on recent Nvidia drivers game crashes on area loading. This isn't the patch issue, it is driver issue. Reinstalling the video driver fixes it.

Oh, by the way - the same uploader will upload a patch for 1-st KOTOR too. So check up his uploads if you're interested.
Patch for the first game isn't as major as this one, but it does fix a few annoying bugs and upps in resolution some bad-looking textures. I didn't put screeshots there, but they're not really needed - patch for the first game is more into bugs than textures.

I have Nvidia drivers and after i used this patch it was working fine until I moved to a new area. It's just a black screen. I tried reinstalling my drivers but that didn't do anything, any other fix?
Any drivers newer than 178.24 crash the game. Even 178.24 may crash the game, but it fixes with reinstallation. All the newer versions crash both - KOTOR I and KOTOR II.
And no, there is no fix for it, nor there will be, I'm afraid. Unless Nvidia fixes this issue in their own drivers, theres nothing I can do.
BY THE WAY, I HAVE RELEASED A NEW (AND VERY FINAL) VERSION WITH A LOT MORE BUG FIXES. DOWNLOAD FROM HERE (SHOULD WORK FOR ANY COUNTRY, NO RESTRICTIONS):
http://www.bioware.ru/biofiles/kotor2/patches/patch_1_0_c_xenon.zip
http://www.bioware.ru/biofiles/kotor2/patches/patch_1_0_c_xenon.zip
www.bioware.ru is the "home" of my patch, but it's a russian site, so I doubt you folks will post there. If you encounter any problems, post them here and I will reply once in a while. Or e-mail me. About the crashes I already replied - it's the drivers, I can't fix it. Any other bugs - feel free to report.
And before you freak out - no, there are no bugs. Lotta people played the game with this patch including me, it's been tested on bugs countless times and all found were already fixed. But just in case - feel free to report.
And thanks a lot for sharing. I really appreciate it.
--------
I REPEAT HOWEVER: THE VERSION ON THIS TORRENT ISN'T FINAL/ FINAL IS BY THE LINK IN THE ABOVE POST.
And if any of you will download, any chance you can create a torrent from it? I dunno how to. Tried, but didn't work. If you do (which I'll super appreciate), just use the same name as this torrent only change "build 2" on "final build" in the name.
Thanks.

thedeathiown, thank you very much for your patch! Thanks to you I will play KOTOR 2 again. I love K2, and with your patch even more. :D
Thanks mate, keep the good work up.
Thanks mate, keep the good work up.
So, I've had crashes during the area transition from inside the Ebon Hawk to outside and on the way back again during the prologue. And the graphics while outside the Ebon Hawk were all flickery. So prob video driver related as you say (since I have new Nvidia drivers). These were easily solved by just loading the autosave to get out and back in.
Now when entering Nar Shadaa I have more problems. The game crashes after Atton's summary and the final video has finished (just after loading I guess). But changing the "Disable Vertex Buffer Objects=1" to 0 kinda helps...for a few seconds. With 0 instead if 1 the game moves past the point of crash and starts on the cutscene of G0-T0 and his henchmen. And then crashes as soon as the cutscene focuses on the twi'leks.
I was hoping maybe there was something else to disable, in the video settings for instance, to avoid the crash during the cutscene? Anyone know?

Just went with the 178 nvidia drivers instead to fix it.
Very much appreciated!
does this fix the crash issue after char creation
same question as astrojeet, its the only thing preventing me from playing on my laptop, swkotor2 doesent work on my windows 7 because of my awesome drivers.
I am playing on Win 7 64-bit with a GeForce 6800, i had the newest drivers but on prologue moving outside the ship it crashes to a black screen. I downgraded to 178.24 as you said, it worked, however i am experiencing screen tearing, both while playing and on the game menu. This didn't happen before.
I am playing with default settings, 1024x768 85Hz resolution. Any suggestions? Oh, i do happen to have the Win Vista/7 dll fix installed too.

Well well... it does work with the 178.44 drivers BUT now i get screen tearing or flickering, whatever you name it (the lines in the middle of the screen). I tried on the same load where it once crashed before and now it doesn't, except for the mess on my screen.
I wonder if using those Vista 64 drivers on Win 7 is actually the cause of this flickering. Strangely enough, raising antialiasing to MAX solves this graphical issue, however, it's like unplayable as you can imagine.
Before i installed your patch i was playing well enough, it would crash now and then, but nothing unsolvable and the bugs are tolerable. But now it seems i am stuck. I even tried to reinstall those drivers but to no avail.
I am sure the content of your patch is admirable to say the least, i just would like to have a chance to try it out.

JUST TO LET YOU ALL KNOW (sorry for caps):
I'm the original creator of this patch, and much newer and MUCH more improved versions are coming. And yes, they DO fix most bugs with NVIDIA graphics cards, and many more game bugs.
Patches (KOTOR 1/2) will be released along with REAL DVD editions of both - KOTOR 1 and KOTOR 2.
All will be in my torrents soon, as soon as I get the time.

This is awesome! Thanks i've been searching everywhere for a patch that actually WORKS! I only have one simply question... Is there a way that you can give me the patch WITHOUT the textures update? After loading the update my game has unbelievable LAG. I figure the problem is your enhanced textures. If not let me know what i can do. Thanks! (Note i did not make a new game after loading this patch)
How do i uninstall it? There is no uninstall file and it keeps crashing the game
ok, so its a driver problem... does the new version fix this?
When I first vist Nar Shaddaa Goes to a cutsecne to where the bounty hunter's are talking to each other, and like 3 to 4 seconds threw the cutsence it crash's.

This created more game breaking crash's then minor one's that this 'fixed'
